Borderlands had a bit of a ride. From punk to bunk, souring fans and stoking flames, we're taking a drive through the wastes. It's a concept I loved and eventually peeled away from, but it's been fun taking a look at what I missed. And wow, I missed a lot. Who's ready for a motha-humpin tea party?
Covering Borderlands, 2, the Pre-Sequel, Tales from the Borderlands, New Tales, 3, and Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, including some Gearbox history for context, and plenty of Randall Pitchford, this is a smooth retrospective look at the Borderlands games as viewed with modern eyes, played co-op for the culture, and reconsidering the legacies certain titles carry, intentionally tracing their origins.
